Replica Rolex Sea-Dweller 43mm Steel 126660, the first and most notable design change on the new Sea-Dweller was the re-introduction of the red font to the dial. Now present, in a sharp red text that reads ‘Sea-Dweller’. This is a nice nod to the original 1967 Sea-Dweller (ref 1665), which featured those famous two lines of text (Sea-Dweller, Submariner 2000), popularly referred to as the ‘Double Red Sea-Dweller’. We also saw a change to the dial finish itself; previously being black with a satin finish, the new Sea-Dweller, although still black, has a gloss finish. The new glossy dial really accentuates the crisp red text, ensuring it stands out.

Rolex Sea-Dweller clone, Rolex developed and patented the helium escape valve. A one-way valve, it activates when the differential between the inner and the outside pressure reaches a critical level. This allows the helium and any other gases used in the breathing gas to be released from inside the watch case. A specific reference was created for COMEX (Submariner ref 5514.) Following on from this, Rolex launched a new model fitted with helium escape valves. The Sea-Dweller Ref 1665 came to market in 1967. Rolex revisited the design of the Sea-Dweller. The red text became white. And the “Submariner 2000” line disappeared altogether. This was to help establish the Sea-Dweller as its own model. A more serious update came in 1978 in the form of the Ref 16660. This model boasted a sapphire crystal and a bigger helium release valve. Its depth rating was also improved to 4,000 feet or 1,220 metres.
